Kanye West fans tend to be younger, mostly aged 13-19, but some fans are older than 50. They appreciate Kanye's unique musical style but are also open to different genres like pop and rock. Many fans admire Kanye's talent and unique approach to music, though some do not like him as a person. Most Kanye fans have traits of being Explorers, who enjoy discovering new music, and Aspirers, who care about others' perceptions of their achievements. However, the fans showed a mix of traits and were not all categorized in the same way.
This is our results from a survey monkey questionnaire on the band twenty one pilots, which we analysed to find out what kind of audience listen to their music.
This is a quiz I created for my A2 Media Studies which depicts and analyses the results of a quiz I created to find the audience type for the band Little Mix.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Francesca Gottschalk from the OECD’s Centre for Educational Research and Innovation presents at the Ask an Expert Webinar: How can education support child empowerment?
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Kanye west fans
1. KANYE WEST
He is extremely talented both as a producer and a lyricist.
Also, Kanye is way ahead of the game on the style front. Much of what
he wears today tends to be fairly popular months after.
Many people hate how arrogant he is (without question he is) but he
always backs it up with great music (one of the few arrogant musicians
who can and that trait alone could be admirable to many).
We’ll be analyzing the video to Kanye West – Good Morning in particular.
2. 4 C’s
Young and Rubicam created a theory that looked at
the brands people bought and how they felt about
them. It created the understanding of the deeper
appeals of the brands.
The theory divides people into seven types, depending
on their core motivation, these are: Explorer, Aspirer,
Succeeder, Reformer, Mainstream, Struggler and
Resigned.
3. initial assumptions
• I suspected people that listen to Kanye West are
younger and are mostly within the 13-19 age gap.
• Tend not to like artists from the ‘Pop’ genre.
• Kanye West fans would like him because of his
unique style and approach to music.
• Would be an ‘Explorer’, ‘Aspirer’ or ‘Struggler’.
• Wouldn’t be a ‘Succeeder’, ‘Reformer’, ‘Mainstream’
or ‘Resigned’.
4. Why do I think this?
They are:
• Explorers- Because of the music video’s different style, it’s a
trippy cartoon that’s different to usual videos we see. There’s a
sense of discovery with the new style that presents the
‘Explorer’ side of Kanye.
• Aspirers- The video shows how Kanye West (The bear)
comes up against all the odds and prevails to graduate,
therefore showing how he and his fans would be ‘Aspirers’ as
others’ perceptions is important to them.
• Strugglers- The video shows the bear didn’t plan ahead and
woke up too late risking missing his graduation, therefore he’s
a ‘Struggler’.
5. Why do I think this?
They aren’t:
• Succeeders- The music video describes Kanye as being
independent, without a strong desire for control other other
people – therefore not having the ‘Succeeder’ trait.
• Reformers- I don’t think they’re ‘Reformers’ as music video
presents Kanye as standing up for himself and running away
from his problems instead of confronting them.
• Mainstream- The bear didn’t follow the conventional way of
getting to graduation, and had a different approach that wasn’t
‘Mainstream’.
• Resigned- I didn’t think fans would be ‘Resigned’ as the video
was very modern and didn’t follow traditional conventions.
6. Were my assumptions correct?
Q1- How old are you?
As I predicted, Kanye West’s
fans are mostly within the 13-19
age gap.
However I did get a few
surprises as over 15% were
aged 50 or over. I didn’t expect
this because I thought the older
generation to prefer music from
their era or something with a
little more vocals than Kanye
West’s typically techno-sounding
songs.
7. Were my assumptions correct?
Q2- Which of the following
artists would you prefer to
listen to?
I was surprised with the results from
this, and my assumption of Kanye
West fans tending not to like songs
from the ‘Pop’ genre, as although
Kanye West was the artist with the
most votes, Adele and Coldplay came
very close. This goes to show Kanye
fans aren’t only open to the unique
variety in his songs, but a unique
variety of genres too.
8. Were my assumptions correct?
Q3- Why do you like Kanye
West?
As I thought, a lot of fans admired
Kanye’s unique approach to music
and appreciated his talent.
Also, in typical Kanye fashion, a lot of
fans responded with some slightly
“unique” answers..
However I wasn’t prepared for some
of the answers saying they didn’t like
him. This goes to show that even if
you produce great music your
personality can affect your public
appreciation.
9. Were my assumptions correct?
Q4- How do you choose the
music you listen to?
As I assumed, most (65%) of the
Kanye West fans are ‘Explorers’ and
prefer to find new artists/songs they
haven’t heard before. I put this down
mainly to the diversity amongst
Kanye’s songs proving that his fans
generally enjoy change and are driven
by a need for discovery.
10. Were my assumptions correct?
Q5- Should you share
achievements on social
media?
I predicted Kanye West fans would
also be ‘Aspirers’, and this proved to
be true as 70% thought that “It’s fine
to be proud of your achievements and
to showcase them on social media”.
This goes to show that they’re driven
by others’ perceptions of them rather
than by their own values.
11. Were my assumptions correct?
Q6- Do you share new
music or keep it to
yourself?
I didn’t think Kanye West fans would
be ‘Succeeders’, and I was right.
They chose to keep new songs to
themselves over persuading
friends/family to listen to it. This
shows that they don’t have a very
strong desire for control and aren’t
constantly striving to better
themselves and reach the top.
Kanye’s fans tend to be relaxed and
have a passive attitude towards life.
12. Were my assumptions correct?
Q7- How would you react if
someone said they didn’t
like your music taste?
I was also correct in assuming they
were ‘Reformers’, as I didn’t think
they’d tell them that they’re wrong and
that their music is better. 65%
preferred to respect others’ opinions
and don’t search for inner
enlightenment. They don’t mind if
people tell them what to do.
13. Were my assumptions correct?
Q8- Do you feel more
comfortable blending in or
standing out?
I thought Kanye West fans would
prefer standing out in society,
therefore not falling in to the
‘Mainstream’ category. However
despite my assumptions they
preferred blending in. The largest
group, daily routine is fundamental to
the ‘Mainstreamers’ lives.
14. Were my assumptions correct?
Q9- How do you go about
your day to day life?
This one surprised me. The answers
were split 50/50. I didn’t think Kanye
West fans would be ‘Strugglers’, but it
seems there’s just as many Strugglers
as there is not. Half live for today,
partying with little direction in life,
whilst the other half plan are
responsible and plan in advance.
Strugglers often seek escape from
conventional life, and are often seen
as victims, losers and wasters.. Sorry
guys!
15. Were my assumptions correct?
Q10 – How do you live in
the present?
I was correct in assuming Kanye
West fans weren’t ‘Resigned’ and
looked to the future instead of
reflecting on the past. However 25%
unexpectedly were ‘Resigned’, I did
some further research and the were
predictably the same people and
answered 50+ in Q1. The ‘Resigned’
are predominantly older and reflect
on the past with a nostalgic glow.
16. What type of people are kanye
fans?
So, from this information we can gather that Kanye
West fans are mostly teenagers, but this goes to show
that age is just a number as the result was so diverse.
We also learnt that not all of Kanye’s fans actually like
him as a person, but still appreciate his music. We
found that they tended to be Explorers, Aspirers,
Reformers and Mainstream. They weren’t however
Succeeders or Resigned, whilst being split 50/50 on
being Strugglers.
